There is tons of space to put solar panels. We don't NEED to come up with a clever solution of where to put the solar panels.

Just put them anywhere, it doesn't matter. Space is cheap. Rooftop space is even cheaper.

Rooftop space also ties directly into existing built infrastructure and grid, which is a neat plus.

There's not sufficient rooftop space for present electrical needs, nor future likely needs. But yes, it's a good start.
